STEVE FLY’S SLEEPING BEAUTY
DJ Fly presents Sleeping Beauty, a selection of vinyl cuts for an outer space journey featuring music by Sun Ra & His Intergalactic Arkestra, Parliament, Jimi Hendrix, Charles Mingus, Salah Ragab, and Peter Thomas, plus some splintered vinyl fragments from DJ Food, The Heliocentrics, the Moonglows, Cosmic Couriers, and John Barry, plus a cut from John Sinclair & the Pinkeye Orchestra all mixed together. Dedicated to other worlds and to other weird playful words. Special thanks to John Sinclair and Kindred Spirit Records Amsterdam for most of the tasty plates I get to serve up into the ear.
“So here you are. As a listener, you hold documentation of the cosmic conversation. Astro-physics plus Egyptian hieroglyphics equal Space is the Place.”
